After my divorce, I became a Tokyo literary giant

Chapter 6 I accept, but that doesn't mean I agree
Pure literary novels are not that easy to write.

It is difficult for Takashi Saku's writings to be published in a serious magazine, let alone submitted to a street magazine.

You have just started working and have no guidance from people in the industry. How can you create excellent works?

Do you have enough experience?

Taking a step back, do you have a wild imagination?

In Saionji Maki's opinion, Tazaki Saku has none of these qualities, and this time it must be some meaningless and whining garbage literature.

She planned to read it all, then mock him harshly and ask Ryoko to divorce him quickly.

He is not allowed to approach the Saionji family again!

But as she looked, her soft and sexy little mouth opened in surprise.

The plot of the whole book is not complicated, and there are not many characters and scenes.

The plot scenes can be roughly divided into two parts.

One part was just me, Shu, and a Chinese bar owner named Jie, chatting idly.

The second part is the main plot. I picked up a drunk girl in a bar and spent a drunken night at her home.

The misunderstanding after waking up has not been explained clearly, and the sad past has not been told clearly. After just eighteen days of getting along, she disappeared without a trace.

The ending seems to be nonsensical, yet it also seems to contain infinity.

After reading it, a faint melancholy lingered in my heart.

In terms of plot conception, there is nothing special about this book. The various allusions and metaphors used to describe the overall confusion of Japanese youth in the 1980s are only decent in the context of pure literature, and cannot be considered outstanding.

Judging from the choice of words and sentence structure, it can only be said to be average.

In the current field of Japanese pure literature, the mainstream is the pursuit of classicism and aesthetics.

There are no classical or aesthetic elements in this novel, and there are very few embellished words and phrases. At most, there are some eye-catching metaphors.

The text is not classical and beautiful enough, the plot is not complex and obscure enough, and it does not seem like pure literature at all.

Instead, it is more like a popular reading?

Of course, Maki Saionji doesn't care about the artistic level of a book. As the president of a publishing house, she values its commercial potential more.

The book "Hear the Wind Sing" seemed very sophisticated and skillful to her.

What is referred to here is not its theme, structure, metaphor and other elements, but some dialogues, as well as psychological and scene descriptions - the text is concise and light, and the delicate brushstrokes are as smooth as water droplets moving on lotus leaves, making it effortless to read, and at the same time, one can naturally feel the shallow sadness and loss of the confused period of youth.

This kind of sadness and depression that is told in a leisurely manner can touch the softest spot in some people's hearts with great accuracy.

Who are they?

Of course, I like those students who are in high school and college. They like those "pretentious" students who don't know where they come from, where they end, and what they do the most.

The text is concise and clear, with no reading difficulties.

Phrases like "Everything will be gone, no one can capture it, and this is how we live" are very suitable for literary youths to excerpt and appropriate.

There is a sense of absurdity and dry humor between the lines, but it does not make people feel dull and boring, which can make young people interested in reading.

For example, in Chapter 2, there’s this conversation between me and Rat after we got drunk and crashed our car into a flower bed.

■

"Well, we're really lucky!" said the Rat.

I nodded: "But the car is scrapped."

"Don't worry about it. You can buy the car, but luck is priceless."

I was a little surprised and looked at Shu's face: "Are you a rich man?"

"That's it!"

"That's great!"

The rat shook his head unsatisfiedly. "Anyway, we're lucky."

"Yes."

The rat crushed the cigarette butt with the heel of his tennis shoe. "I say, how about we form a partnership? We'll be invincible!"

"What do you do first?"

"Let's have some beer!"

The two bought some wine, walked to the beach, and lay down on the beach, drinking it all in one gulp.

After drinking it, I took a nap and when I woke up I felt full of vitality.

"It can run 100 kilometers!" I said to the mouse.

"I can do it too!"

However, the most urgent task is that the two must pay the park maintenance fees, including principal and interest, to the city government over three years.

■

This kind of playful, humorous and irrelevant writing style, if placed in pure literature, might be criticized by some old stubborn people as being like a primary school student writing a diary.

But the atmosphere and artistic conception of youthful loneliness between the lines are really good. If it is read by petty bourgeois intellectuals who need to show off, it will be a sure kill... This group of people happens to be the largest purchasing group of paper books.

It took me almost an hour to carefully read and analyze the novel of more than 4 words.

Saionji Maki's eyes widened with surprise.

This book has the potential to be a huge hit. If handled properly, it might even save the publisher from its current crisis...

[Xiyuanji has been moved, and the road to love can go further. ]

【mission completed】

【Reward: Complete Works of Haruki Murakami】

The system popped up a prompt, and Tazakisaku looked at her cool and beautiful profile: "How do you feel?"

"What nonsense! Just whining and a big, hypocritical scene!" Saionji Maki snorted coldly, her exquisite oval face turning towards him. "You think you can impress me with a book like this? Don't dream! With this level of writing, it's almost like a middle school student's composition. No one can possibly read it..."

Harsh words came out of her rosy and sexy little mouth.

In the past, Tazaki Saku would definitely be humiliated by her, but now, looking at her stubborn look, he only felt pleasure.

"After more than 40,000 words, you're completely incomprehensible! It's like a bunch of Japanese text was put together, Google Translated into English, and then translated back into Japanese. The word choice and sentence structure are completely lacking. When you said you were writing a novel, I thought you might have some talent. Now it seems you're just an arrogant, foolish idiot who can't see your true level!"

Maki Saionji was used to scolding him, and she would spout all kinds of sarcastic words.

...She had never scolded anyone else like this before. Mainly because she thought that Tazaki Saku had deceived her sister away, her attitude towards him was particularly bad.

"but……"

As she was cursing, Saionji Maki suddenly changed the subject and looked at Tazaki Saku: "If you don't give up and insist on realizing your literary dream, I can reluctantly sign this book for Ryoko's sake."

Hearing this, Tazaki Saku smiled slightly: "Xiyuanji-san, you are so kind to me."

"Heh!" Saionji Maki smiled coldly.

"But I refuse."

"Tomorrow I'll ask Shimamoto to...what?"

"I said, I refuse." Tazaki Saku said calmly.

Saionji Maki looked at him in astonishment, as if she had heard a joke: "How dare you reject me?"

"Why not?" Tazaki Saku asked back, sitting down on the computer chair and looking up at her. "I've been scolded by you for so long, it's normal to feel a little resentful, right? Now that the resentment has not subsided, why do you want to sign a contract with Aobasha, which is about to go bankrupt?" "Other publishing houses don't look down on you!" Saionji Maki's eyes were cold and her attitude was tough.

"It doesn't matter. I'll submit my work to Shinchodō and Bungeishunju. If I can't make it, I'll just stop being a writer."

Seeing his indifferent look, Saionji Maki gritted her teeth and said, "I will ask Ryoko to divorce you tomorrow."

"Whatever, whatever makes you happy."

"..."

Maki Saionji widened her eyes and looked at him as if he were an alien.

Something is wrong. Something is wrong with him now...

"Do you have anything else to say?" Tazaki Saku asked, looking at her snow-white feet.

Noticing his gaze, Saionji Maki subconsciously curled up her toes in her sandals.

This guy has become so bold now, he actually dares to look at him like this, and he is no longer as timid as before...

It feels like a different person.

Maki Saionji couldn't guess why, and for a moment she had no idea how to deal with him.

"Why don't you apologize to me?" Tazaki Saku's eyes were dim.

There was a great deal of emotion in Saionji Maki's noble eyes, as if she couldn't believe that he dared to make such a request.

"You only have one minute to think about it." Tazaki Saku was in a good mood and spoke in a playful tone.

Saionji Maki clenched her fists, her plump body trembling slightly, her face full of frost, and she squeezed out a voice from between her teeth: "—You dare to ask me to apologize to you?"

"50 seconds left!" Tazaki Saku laughed.

Maki Saionji stared at him with cold eyes, and after more than ten seconds, she turned around and left.

She was born noble and cold, and would never tolerate any humiliation.

Even if the publishing house goes bankrupt, even if she dies, she will not let herself be manipulated by others.

But she may not know that a queen who is in a desperate situation but still shows an unyielding attitude can easily arouse a man's crazy desire to conquer her...

Tazaki Saku admired her character of preferring death to submission.

At the same time, I'm looking forward to her pride being torn apart, revealing her desperate and dark side...

"It doesn't matter. Ryoko is still here anyway."

This devilish voice made Maki Saionji, who was walking to the door, shake her body and her face changed color instantly.

My sister is so beautiful and noble, why should she be ruined by a country boy...

Maki Saionji is a traditional and conservative Japanese patriarch with a domineering personality, but she also values her family very much.

It is absolutely impossible for her to be humiliated herself.

But if it's for my sister...

His face was full of hesitation and struggle, and his eyes were tangled and changing for a long time.

Finally, Maki Saionji made up her mind, turned around, and walked over to Tazaki Saku.

He looked down at the young man sitting there, his voice as cold as ever: "I apologize for my previous behavior."

His head was not lowered, his waist was not bent, and his expression and tone were the same as before.

"Are you satisfied now?" asked Maki Saionji coldly.

"Nizonoji-san, shouldn't your apology be sincere?" Tazaki Saku asked with a smile.

"..."

Maki Saionji took a deep breath for a moment.

Slowly lifting the hem of her skirt to reveal more of her snow-white thighs, she bowed slightly: "Are you satisfied now?"

"not enough."

"You...don't go too far!"

Saionji Maki scolded, her beautiful eyes looking indifferent.

At this moment, her expression is still so tough, which really makes people want to conquer her.

"The initiative is now in my hands," Tazaki Saku said expressionlessly.

Maki Saionji bit her lower lip and her chest puffed out.

Does this guy want her to humiliate herself by exposing her panties and apologizing?
How presumptuous!

Maki Saionji had to work very hard to suppress the anger in her heart.

Tazaki Saku was not in a hurry anyway.

With the complete works of Haruki Murakami in hand, he can go anywhere.

It doesn't matter if he can humiliate her now or not. He is not a pervert who enjoys torturing others.

It was his indifferent attitude that made Saionji Maki helpless against him. She struggled in silence for a few minutes, and finally, under the dual demands of her sister and the novel, she lowered her proud head in front of a man for the first time in her life.

The little hands grabbed the hem of the skirt and slowly pulled it up, revealing a whiter and more delicate scenery.

"Is it ready?"

"continue."

"..."

The fingertips pinching the hem of the skirt became stronger and stronger.

"continue."

"…It's already exposed!" Maki Saionji roared in a low voice.

Sexy black lace panties paired with the pure JK uniform make people feel more erotic.

Tazaki Saku looked at her.

The contours are so full. Compared with this sister, Ryoko is crushed in all aspects.

"I apologize for my previous behavior!" Although Saionji Maki was ashamed and angry in her heart, her eyes were still cold.

"Well, I accept." Tazaki Saku nodded.

Saionji Maki lowered the hem of her skirt and looked down at her: "Then let's sign the contract tomorrow."

Facing her condescending gaze, Tazaki Saku smiled playfully: "Xiyuanji-san, you may have made a mistake."

"What do you mean, you don't accept my apology?"

"I accept, but that doesn't mean I agree!"

"……what?"

Want me to sign a contract? Wear this outfit again and talk to me tomorrow at the company!"

"..."

Maki Saionji's eyes went dark and she almost fainted from anger.
